electric start?

[lamarw1981]

is anyone coming out with an electric start for the rampage xt?

That'd be nice.

The new Turtle Racing pull start will be a stepping stone to a drill start.

I've thought about a drill starter, but it is just one more thing to take to get your car started. I loved them on my nitro. The two strokes start much easier IMO, so I have not tried one yet.

1+ I was thinking the same thing its a must for me on my nitro but on the 2 strokes I don't want to have to carry 1 more item.

Loved the electric start on the Traxxas nitros. Nitro two strokes are a pain to start without one. Gas two strokes don't really need it. The ignition system makes it a lot easier to start.

Yes a battery, starter motor,coil ,push button start and the truck or buggy will weigh 45lbs. lol

work out more and it will seem easyer to start

mine usually starts 1-3 pulls from cold anyway, never been a problem on the 2smokers (diffrent story when my engine is hot tho)

i love the rotostart on nitros, but the main reason i hate pullstarts on nitros is because these small pullstarts break ALLLLLLLL the time(for me anyway)........im about to fix one right now only wanted a quick bash on my truggy lol, snaped 2nd pull....

Does anyone know if this setup will work for the XT?

It'll bolt up. There's enough clearance and it looks like you'd be able to access it easily.

 

[rcgasser]

Yes it will work have seen it in action before on and XT

 

[chilzzi]

I don't know what this weighs but don't look like 40 pounds. http://www.ebay.com/itm/RC-Remote-controller-Roto-Starter-for-Redcat-Rampage-MT-GAS-Truck-30CC-V3-Buggy-/271694931222?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f4247a516

seems like a lot of money just to keep from pulling a string and another thing to break down on you but the wow factor might be worth it. thing is for me my old lady isn't that thrilled with my hobbies anyway and I don't have a bunch of extra beer money laying around either so i'll probably never see one up close.

I just use an old nasil sqirt bottle, one of these saline solution bottles @ wal-mart costs a dollar, dump out the liquid put a little premix int the bottle, squirt a bit of gas in the carb, starts 1st time the engine comes up to top dead center. regardless of the weather. suppose i should mark the primer bottle with a marker saying GAS, there is lots of pollen in the air now, be a shame if someone with allergies wanted to open up there sinuses---

 

[Ildy666]

That would do it....lol....

 

[Ice_2k]

Where exactly are you squirting the gas?

 

[Ildy666]

In the carb. Where else???
